About the Peter and Anna Serini House, built 1903, rebuilt 1923

Alexander McLellan, a Canadian immigrant, and foreman for Southwestern Bell Telephone & Telegraph Company, moved to Galveston after the 1900 Storm. In 1902, he purchased this vacant lot and in 1903 relocated an “old” house there. In 1913, Peter and Anna Serini purchased the property. The Serinis rebuilt the house in 1923, using “part old material,” according to the property’s original 1903 insurance record.
